If you have installed a signed certificate (either via LetsEncrypt or an 
actual paid CA), then you just need to set your hostname in the email 
setup to be the same as the hostname of the server (ie: not the hostname 
of a hosted website).    In other words, if the hostname of your server 
is server.mydomain.tld, then that's what you set your incoming and 
outgoing email servers to within the email software (be that IOS mail or 
Thunderbird or whathaveyou).   Even if your website is 
www.myreallyneatdomain.tld, use the server's FQDN as your email target.
